droves in search of parties on the week-
ends and are fond of flocking to many of
the University' scheduled and planned
events duing the week - - behavior that
is rem niscer of hIgh school.
Part of that high school reminiscent
mentality involves the idea of fitting in
The entering class tends to want to be
like the rest of the group more than older
students do, explains Deb Kraus, a psy-
chologist at the University's Counseling
and Psychological Services. That's why
many people think they can identify
first-year students by the way they look.

"There's a pressure to belong and fit
in, to not stand out too weirdly" Kraus
says. "Everybody's trying to find a
niche. In a campus this large, you don't
want to feel like a complete free agent."
Pachella also said the need to be part
of a larger group draws many first-year
students to fraternities and sororities.
"The Greek system is a continuation
of a group mentality, where you are
joined with others not because of shared
values or interests but because of an
arranged situation," Pachella says.
Psychology Prof Chris Peterson says
students can be divided into three class-
es, depending on their progress in the
adjustment process: the entering class,

which has just left home, the continuing
class, which has established itself at the
University, and the departing class,
which is preparing for the fully adult
world of work and relationships.
"First-year students are bright-eyed
and bushy-tailed," Peterson said. "By the
time they get older, they get more jaded.
When they become seniors, they get
more serious, as they look for jobs."
Of course not all of the University's
upperclassmen are well adjusted. And not
all of Ann Arbor's first-year-students
think alike. But the transition most of us
experience during our first year on cam-
pus helps to shed light on why we all
seem so different.
